US EditionQuentin Tarantino On Why David Fincher Is Directing ‘The Adventures of Cliff Booth’
Quentin Tarantino declined to direct the $200 million Netflix sequel to avoid repeating himself, praising David Fincher for taking over while remaining involved as producer.
- Quentin Tarantino is not directing The Adventures of Cliff Booth, a Netflix sequel to his 2019 film about a stuntman, as David Fincher will take on directing duties while Brad Pitt returns to reprise his role.
- Tarantino declined directing because he did not want his tenth and final film to be a sequel and felt the project retraced familiar ground despite loving the script.
- He passed the script to Fincher, praised him as the right director, and said Fincher’s interest shows a seriousness toward his work worth noting.
- Tarantino is involved in the project as the screenwriter and a producer, and although he won’t be present on set every day due to his travel between Israel and other locations, he remains available to assist as needed throughout filming.
- This arrangement allows Tarantino to focus on live theater while Fincher directs the Netflix sequel, highlighting their mutual respect as two of the best contemporary filmmakers.
